The woman working was very rude. I thought the whole concept of the store was amazing and my mother is obsessed with purple, so I took my phone out and started taking pictures. Now, let me just say that if there were any "No photography allowed" signage, I would have abided by the rules, but the lady gabbing on the phone started yelling at me that she doesn't allow photographs being taken in her store. So I put my phone away. I considered leaving right then and there, but wanted to get my mother something purple, so I grabbed a wallet. I don't remember prices being too high or low. It was probably normal tourist prices. I know I wouldn't have paid more than $10-15 on the wallet.But when I got to the register, she was still on the phone, didn't acknowledge me, didn't give me the total (I had to read it on the register), then to open a plastic bag for the wallet, since she had a phone in one hand, she used her other hand and HER MOUTH to open the bag. I asked her if I can have a new bag, she ignored me, then I repeated, "can I have a bag you didn't put in your mouth, please?" She was still gabbing on the phone. So I just took the wallet out of the bag and left the empty bag on the counter.I don't know for sure but this was probably the owner with the way she was saying "MY STORE." If this was the owner, and if by some chance you're reading this, owning a business is 75% customer service. You can have an amazing product (you do), but if you don't treat your guests with respect, your business will plummet! So get some "no photography" signs and PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR GUESTS, greet them coming in, thank them as they leave, and give them your undivided attention while ringing them up! I've been in customer service for 10+ years. I would have been fired for treating people this way.I've debated whether or not to post my photos, but out of respect of the owner's wishes, I won't. On a last note, I rarely hand out one star reviews, so don't think I'm a jerk who just likes ruining people's ratings.
